Hole in One Holiday Miracle

Getting a hole in one is truly a miracle.  So many golfers go their entire life without experiencing this accomplishment.  Getting a hole in one on the first swing with your brand new set of fitted irons is like winning the lottery and being struck by lightning in the same day.  It is pretty much impossible....  But not for John Lillis.

Recently I fit John into a new set of Ping G20 irons.  We went through a detailed fitting and got everything dialed in.  We placed the order and he received the clubs within 2 weeks.  His specs were TFC 169 graphite regular flex, standard length, and purple dot.  And his first time out with his new clubs, on the first hole, with the first swing of the day John had his first Hole in One!

Here is how John describes his amazing experience.
"I am still in the "glow" from my first ever hole in one with my new G-20 Ping Irons. This was my first shot of the day at the Par 3, 155 yd., 15th hole at Lake of the Pines.


I received the new clubs at my house on Sat.,12/17/11 and didn't have time to even hit a shot with them. I played the next day and did not have time to hit any warm up shots and with the frost delay rode with my friend, Steve Rhodes, to join three other golfers waiting on the 15th tee.


I was second to play and chose a 7 iron. I hit the ball exactly where I wanted it to go and it rolled from right to left approximately 15 feet and dropped into the hole!!!!!

Since that day I have been to the range once to really get the feel for my new irons. From the imprint of the ball on the club face I am hitting the ball on the sweet spot very consistently.

Matt Young did a great job in custom fitting these irons to my swing. I have probably hit 15,000 golf shots and never scored a hole in one. I love my new PING G-20 irons and the custom fit I received courtesy of Matt Young, golf pro at Haggin Oaks.

Congrats John on this amazing accomplishment!!!  If you are looking for new clubs, come see me at the Haggin Oaks Super Shop and get fit.  I can't guarantee that you will have this same experience but I am sure that we can get you into the right equipment that is built properly for you.  Enjoy the Holidays and Happy New Year!
